Initial stock level
The inventory form is not the right form to use to enter the initial stock level for some reasons:
- it does not hold the cost price of the products (cost price may be readonly if set to non-fixed)
- the re-computation of the cost price uses only supplier moves and start with a price of zero
So for me, the right way to do it is by entering manual moves (available to stock admin) from supplier location to each location and put the cost price as unit price. This way the re-computation will take this unit price as base for the cost price computation.
But to be able to do that easily, there are some missing features:
- the effective date must be set to the right date (instead of today), so the readonly must be changed
- the "do" button must not warn for each moves but only once because user will have a lot of moves to "do".
